Professional skateboarder, husband, and father, Jordan Richter is also the founder and director of the JRSA (Jordan Richter Skateboarding Academy) whose aim is to spread a love for skateboarding, share life lessons born from one’s skateboarding experiences, and get as many people on board as possible.

Through their efforts with local and regional Parks & Rec departments, the JRSA has created skateboard programs for more than 1,200 students and developed a full skate-lesson curriculum that meets National and State Physical Education Standards. Working with San Francisco Bay Area homeless shelters, non-profits like Skate MD and the Yaseen Foundation, as well as private parties, the JRSA is honored to pass on problem-solving skills, creative thought, and fun through lessons, public speaking, and consulting about the positive benefits of a life in skateboarding.
